2018 marked WDO's Jubilee - ten years of making a difference in the lives of others through music. We took our mission to Dubai, Hamburg, Berlin, Washington, D.C., Warsaw, and Krakow, donating tens of thousands of dollars to healthcare-related charities.

2019 promises to be no less impactful. Our physician-musicians will travel to Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Paris, Reims, Houston, Lisbon, and Porto. I encourage you to visit our "Upcoming Events" tab for details about the charities that will be supported at each session and the major works scheduled for each performance.

We encourage you to help us as we help others - your tax deductible donation makes possible the concerts that spread awareness about the selected charities and provides much needed funding in support of those worthwhile causes.

On behalf of the leadership team, the volunteer musicians, and the charities we touch, thank you for your generosity ... and we'll see you at the next show!

​​​​​​Who We Are and What We Do

For the uninitiated, the North American iteration of World Doctors Orchestra was founded in 2011 so that we might better serve the charities and donors of the United States and Canada; WDO's sister organization was established in Berlin in 2008. Our vision is to remove barriers to access to healthcare via the international language of music; our mission is to provide worthy healthcare charities with financial development opportunities that qualify as tax deductible charitable contributions in the United States.

​WDO now includes more than 1,200 physician-musicians and has provided half a million Euros to support charities including:

Ambulance Boat for BolengeThe Association of the Friends of the German Heart Centre BerlinBC Children’s Hospital FoundationBerlin Center for the Treatment of Torture VictimsCentre Intégré de Recherches Biocliniques d’AbidianCentre of Disabled Children and Young People of ArmeniaCorporación de Adelanto Amigo de PanguipulliDentists for AfricaFörderkreis für krebskranke Kinder und Jugendliche BonnFormosa Cancer FoundationThe Free Medical Clinic of Greater Cleveland

While the daily work of our physician-musicians focuses on healing one patient at a time, as an orchestra we promote the conviction that neither national borders nor political or economic interests should limit access to basic healthcare. Your support of our upcoming sessions makes this conviction a reality.

Thank you for contacting us! If needed, you will hear back within 48-72 hours.

World Doctors Orchestra USA:

Serving Healthcare Charities from the Concert Hall

At least three times a year, some 125 physicians from all over the world exchange their white coats for evening attire and perform benefit concerts to support global medical aid projects. While their daily work focuses on healing one patient at a time, as an orchestra they promote the conviction that neither national borders nor political or economic interests should limit access to basic healthcare.

As a result of the generosity of people like you, WDO has taken performances in world class venues in Armenia, Austria, China, Germany, Taiwan, South Africa, and the U.S. and translated them into financial support for organizations including: George Mark Children's House, The Free Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio; Whitman Walker Health in Washington, D.C.; The Hugo Tempelman Foundation's Ndlovu Medical Center in Elandsdoorn, South Africa; the Formosa Cancer Foundation in Taiwan; and Dentists for Africa in Kenya.
